Vogue Paris May 2012 : Laetitia Casta by Mario Testino

[anlabe32]

That looks very exciting. Kendra looks like a true supermodel.
I hate it how great models like Magdalena, Kendra, Karmen and Zuzanna are constantly in VP but are never on the cover.

 

[jmrmartinho]

^Yeah its just supermodels which isnt bad but I wanted a working model on the cover.

 

[Wolkfolk]

I like this cover. I mean I like Laetitia, french woman on the cover of VP, french pride woot woot bla bla bla bla + It's fresh and quite spring-ish without being too cliché. But you know what's cliché a french actress tribute by Vogue Paris with Laetitia on the cover, I mean puuulease. I many are we gonna see this. Carine already over did it IMO and now Emmanuelle shows the same weakness. How can you name so many great and fresh actresses on the cover, women who could've offered a more interesting result because we've never seen them on the front cover. And yet they go for the easy road. "It's May, which means Cannes Film Festival, which means our cinema issue BUT we are a fashion mgazine well let's put Laetitia Casta, yeaaaaah brilliant." I know that's a bit smplistic and childish but that's how I see it.

Boring cover :|

 

[AnaBGD]

I love the cover, simple and beautiful.

The same comments in every VP thread each month, by the same people. The fact is, Carine isn't coming back and the magazine has taken a new direction. The content hasn't even been revealed and people are already "bored"...

I'm bored with hearing the same old story...

Exactly!

 

[fantastical]

^actually I would argue that there are more comments in favor of this cover than in previous months
which I agree with, this is a simple and well done cover. definitely one of the best under Alt's time at VP

 

[Jelavender]

What is Laetitia wearing on the cover?

I quite like the golden button detail on the sleeve of the white blazer.

L'adoree, Gloria, Serie Noir & Full Color are some editorials that I`m really looking forward to see!

Laetitia`s editorial is really stunning! I love it!

 

[Thefrenchy]

For the first time in months I'm actually looking forward to seeing all this Laetitia and Malgosia especially!

 

[Abracadabra]

To be fair, the previews look decent and this could well be a very good issue. I'm looking forward to seeing Full Color too, Alt is sure sticking to the models she likes, If she is going to keep on doing this then at least give Malgosia or Natasha a cover.

 

[Melancholybaby]

Joan's and Malgosia's eds look like they could turn out great. Natasha's shot is fabulous too, but I doubt it's a full ed. It looks like the usual Sorrenti beauty shot.

 

[mousyy]

Does anybody know when is it out in Paris?

 

[Thefrenchy]

^On the 20th, I believe

 

[liberty33r1b]

most eds seem to be black&white, which is a little dull for a summer issue. Malgosia and Natasha's eds sound most promising, I can't wait to see them

 

[K2theC]

no hans feurer?

 

[jmrmartinho]

OMG Natashas editorial look outstanding.
And Im also loving Joans story.

Looking like a great issue!!

 

[Creative]

Emmanuelle was obviously not the right person to take over from Carine. They needed someone talented and fresh to replace the architect of one of the most incredible and fruitful leaderships of a magazine ever.

Every issue under Alt’s supervision has been repetitive, boring, empty, lifeless, plain, meaningless, bland, uninteresting, sterile, irrelevant… There’s no direction at all. She can go from a crude version of Newton to a (pretended) glamorous cover to a (pretended) ‘girly’ and ‘fresh’ studio shot…

I just hope for the sake of Vogue Paris she leaves the magazine soon. It’s starting to remind me of Buck’s latest years at the helm of the magazine.

^Ok I love Magdalena, but this is just scary. All I can think of is skin cancer.
